Global Economic Recovery and Growth: CFOs' Most Worrisome Risks
The primary concern of chief finance officers is the state of the global economy (specifically, the path of longer-term economic improvement in North America, Europe and Asia) and the impact of government actions on economic recovery, according to the latest results of Deloitte's CFO Signals™ survey. Concerns regarding fiscal and environmental policy declined this quarter, but worries about industry-specific regulation continued to grow. Concerns about Washington gridlock returned and new worries about the effects of geopolitical events on economic growth emerged—even before conditions in Syria became front-page news.
The third-quarter survey, which tracks the thinking and actions of finance chiefs from North America's largest companies, reflects the responses of more than 120 CFOs from organizations with collective annual revenues of nearly $1 trillion.
Overall, 38% of CFOs describe the North American economy as good, a greater show of optimism than last quarter when 30% felt that way. In addition, 53% of CFOs describe the status of the North American economy as mediocre, down slightly from last quarter's 60%. About 55% of CFOs believe conditions will be better a year from now, with just 2% thinking conditions will be worse and 43% expecting conditions to stay the same.
"Last quarter's survey showed that finance chiefs were feeling better than they had in a while– especially relative to a year prior. And the good news is that their optimism has largely carried over to this quarter, bucking a trend that typically sees a precipitous drop in the second and/or third quarters," says Greg Dickinson, director, Deloitte LLP, who leads the North American CFO Signals survey.
A key reason for continued optimism is that most companies represented in the survey derive a very large proportion of their earnings from North America, and this region's economy continues to be the relative bright spot. "While North American economies are not strong by historical standards, both their current status and their near-term trajectories compare favorably to European economies, many of which remain near recession, and major emerging markets, which are facing slower growth," adds Mr. Dickinson.
CFOs are less optimistic about economic risks in Europe, with 80% of finance chiefs saying the status of that region's economy is bad, although the percentage is an improvement from last quarter's 90%. Less than 15% of CFOs believe the European economy will be better a year from now, and about 30% believe it will be worse, compared with 40% last quarter.
Fewer CFOs believe China's economy is good, with 25% registering that opinion, down from 35% last quarter. Once again, 15% regard the Chinese economy as bad, and only 27% believe it will improve a year from now, down from 37% last quarter. Just under one-quarter (23%) believe China's economy will be worse, an increase compared to last quarter's 10%.
Impediments to Growth
By a wide margin, the status of North American economies is companies' top growth aid, with 70% of CFOs naming it in their top three. But the region's economy can be a hindrance, too, with roughly 15% of CFOs naming it both a top aid and a top growth impediment.
Other top impediments to growth cited by CFOs include the following.
- Industry-specific regulation cited by 35% of CFOs as the top impediment to growth, up from 28% last quarter. About 75% of Financial Services CFOs and 65% in the Healthcare/Pharma sector named this factor a top impediment.
- Government spending/budget policy was cited as a top impediment by 23% of CFOs overall (down from 30%), and by 90% of those in the Healthcare/Pharma sector.
- Industry dynamics are a negative factor for 24% of CFOs and a positive factor for 29% (down 10 percentage points from last quarter).
CFOs would rather go on the offensive with regard to growth and pursue opportunities rather than stick with a defensive strategy, which is the same sentiment expressed by CFOs last quarter. From an industry perspective, however, the Energy/Resources sector is the most biased toward limiting risk.
Most Worrisome Issues for Finance Chiefs of Major Large Companies
Of the internal and external factors that compete for CFOs' attention, the respondents named the following as most worrisome.
- Geopolitics: New worries emerged that geopolitical events will further stifle global growth.
- Input and resource prices: Focus increased on commodity, oil and energy prices, especially in the Energy/Resources sector.
- Interest-rate movement: Worries grew about the direction of interest rates (both up and down), especially in the Financial Services sector.
- Government gridlock: Having mostly disappeared recently, worries about the ability of governments to improve economic conditions rebounded.
- Irrationality: Concerns grew that slow growth and waning demand might lead to irrational competition.
- Margin pressures: Concerns escalated about competition, pricing and the ability to align costs with revenue.
- Execution: Worries returned around companies' ability to execute well on current and new strategies.

If these last few Google app leaks are legit, it looks like Google is planning to add all the color back into Android. Honeycomb made everything neon, Ice Cream Sandwich made everything blue, and KitKat made everything white and clean. Now, all these leaks show redesigned Google apps with crazy colors. And while I may not like it, it may be the way Android is heading soon.
The latest leak is another photo of the dialer. The previous photo was leaked courtesy of Google itself, when its Twitter account tweeted out a photo of a dialer. It looked like the current dialer, but the bar on top was blue. This photo furthers the blue theme, but also shows changes in the contact view.
All the contacts now look like Gmail thumbnails, with photos of the person if available, or a colored card with a letter if not. The blue bar at the bottom just adds a bit of colored flare to the previously white app. I must say, it doesn't look too bad.
The screenshot was allegedly taken from a Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.3, possibly hinting at a Google employee testing the new firmware. However, we'll have to wait until the official release of 4.4.3 to see if the dialer will actually be redesigned. Do you like the direction that Android is headed?

Hello, recently found your site and I love it! I am just starting the Lifefit trainer and am doing my workouts at 530am as well. I was wondering if you eat breakfast before you workout? I have quite a bit of weight to lose, and have heard debates about working out in a fasted state. Would love your opinion. Thanks! BrittanyReplyDeleteReplies
I definitely don't recommend lifting on an empty stomach! Pre and post workout meals are most important for muscle building and with more muscle, you will boost your metabolism, which means more fat burning! I eat egg whites and oats or egg whites and ezekiel toast before the gym.Delete
- AnonymousFebruary 2, 2012 at 8:21 PM
Thanks for your quick reply, I will start to eat before workouts. Can I eat this right before heading to the gym or do I need more time for digestion? Dreading waking up earlier that 5 to eat. heheDelete
Oh, I need a new blender and since a Vitamix costs a small fortune, this one might suffice! I've been obsessed with putting roasting beets into smoothies lately. Do you ever put veggies into your smoothies? Can't wait for summer for the blackberries... we grow a TON of them.ReplyDelete

Rounding Out the Roster
By the look of things, GM Ruben Amaro Jr. could be done adding to the roster for a while. The Winter Meetings are on the horizon, but the Phillies have few spots left to fill and will be closely monitoring the shortstop market as their primary focus. Jimmy Rollins is expected to seek a five-year deal, something that should and probably will make the Phillies apprehensive.
How best to round out the roster? Let's take a look at what a realistic roster, at the present time, would look like.
Infield (8):
- C: Carlos Ruiz
- 1B: Ryan Howard (DL), Jim Thome
- 2B: Chase Utley
- 3B: Placido Polanco
- Bench: Ty Wigginton, Wilson Valdez, Brian Schneider
Outfield (5):
- LF: John Mayberry, Jr. and (?)
- CF: Shane Victorino
- RF: Hunter Pence
- Bench: Ben Francisco
Starting Rotation (5):
Bullpen (7):
- CL: Jonathan Papelbon
- SU: Antonio Bastardo
- RP: Jose Contreras, Kyle Kendrick, David Herndon, Michael Stutes, Michael Schwimer
Let's start with the infield. Obviously, Howard will start the year on the DL. Additionally, Jim Thome isn't going to be able to play everyday or even semi-regularly as he hasn't played more than 20 innings in the field since leaving the Phillies after the 2005 season. Thome hits right-handed pitching significantly better, so a platoon is clearly a necessity at first base. Wigginton, recently acquired, does not have much of a platoon split but does hit left-handers slightly better. A third option could be John Mayberry, Jr., who crushed lefties in his first dose of semi-regular playing time last season.
The most logical way to fill the void at first base appears to be giving Thome two or three starts a week (against right-handed pitching only) with the remaining starts going to Wigginton and Mayberry. As the Wigginton signing is a direct response to Howard's Achilles injury, that is the likely role for the former Baltimore Oriole; however, were it up to me, I would let Mayberry get the majority of at-bats against southpaws at first base. It remains to be seen exactly how Charlie Manuel will split up the playing time, but Wigginton's bat profiles better with less playing time at first base.
Second base isn't too hard to figure out; one need only search for the man with the L.A. Looks hair gel. In the past, Manuel promised to give Utley time off during the season, but it did not happen on a regular basis. After returning to the lineup on May 23 last year, Utley started 100 of the final 116 games (86 percent). I'd like to see that change in 2012, especially since Placido Polanco can slide from third to second and Wigginton can take over at the hot corner. This would be particularly useful against a tough lefty.
As mentioned, Polanco will be found at third base. After a great April (.972 OPS), Polanco tanked, posting a depressing .591 OPS the rest of the way. Although he has already more than paid for his three-year, $18 million contract already, he has shown signs of aging and decline. He set career-lows in isolated power (.062), batting average (.277), and wOBA (.304) in 2011. While Wigginton won't provide much of an upgrade (especially when factoring in defense), it would be helpful to Polanco's long-term durability if he were to be given a day off every week.
The question on everybody's mind right now is "Who will be the Phillies' shortstop in 2012?" Rollins is seeking a five-year deal and it is very hard to see the Phillies doling out such a contract to a 33-year-old with a recent injury history. Outside of Rollins and Jose Reyes, the shortstop market is very thin, so the most likely scenarios involve the Phillies bringing Rollins back, relying on Wilson Valdez, putting all their eggs in the basket of Freddy Galvis (very unlikely), or signing a free agent (such as Rafael Furcal or Alex Gonzalez) to a team-friendly one- or two-year deal.
Let's say the Phillies are unable to bring back Rollins and Reyes gets his mega-deal somewhere else. I would be content with the Phillies moving on with a player like Gonzalez, who plays above-average defense and hits just well enough to be average at his position (NL average wOBA for shortstops last year was .309; Gonzalez's career average is .296). Furcal is better all-around, but also riskier as he has spent considerable time on the disabled list during the past two seasons (58 days in 2010; 69 days in 2011). In the past, I've pointed out that an elite team like the Phillies should aim to reduce variance as much as possible, so Gonzalez fits ever so slightly better than Furcal, and he will be cheaper as well (most likely). Rumors have Furcal seeking a multi-year deal, and the shortstop market may just be barren enough that a team is desperate enough to agree to such a deal.
The return of Rollins will significantly affect how the Phillies fill out the rest of the roster. If they are not on the hook paying him eight figures in 2012, they will have more payroll space to patch up other areas and even sign Hamels to a contract extension. For instance, the Phillies could sign Michael Cuddyer (assuming he will be available at that point), or go after a left-handed outfielder such as Johnny Damon or David DeJesus. Perhaps the extra payroll flexibility allows Amaro to bring in another reliever as well.
The outfield is more or less set. Victorino and Pence will be found in center and right field, respectively. Left field can be filled a number of ways in the absence of Raul Ibanez. The Phillies have three immediate candidates for the position in Mayberry, Francisco, and Brown. Previously, however, Amaro stated that he wanted Brown to get another full season in Triple-A, so that leaves the Phillies with two right-handers. As mentioned, depending on exactly where the Phillies stand with respect to their payroll, a lefty could be brought in, and there are a swath of lefty outfielders available: the previously mentioned Damon and DeJesus, as well as Ibanez, Laynce Nix, Jason Kubel, and Kosuke Fukudome, among others.
Personally, I would immediately rule out Ibanez, Nix, and Fukudome. Damon seems like a great fit. Corey Seidman went over the pros and cons at Phillies Nation recently, writing:
Damon would also bring some speed, which can't be said of any of the other impact leftfielders on the Phils' radar. Damon is the only one of the bunch who could be penciled into the two-hole just as well as the six-hole.
If Damon can be had on a one-year, $4.25-4.5 million deal, he's pretty much a no-brainer. Signing Damon would give the Phils three solid depth bats – Damon, Ty Wigginton, Jim Thome – for less than the cost of one year of Michael Cuddyer.
DeJesus is the best of the bunch when it comes to defense. Like Damon, he is coming off of a career-worst season offensively (his first season outside of Kansas City). In a typical year, DeJesus hits close to .300 with above-average on-base skills, so he would be an asset hitting at the top of the lineup behind Victorino. Kubel is your typical mediocre left fielder with occasional power. Although the Phillies ranked seventh in the league in slugging percentage last year, they were nearly as unimpressive in the on-base department, and given the lack of diversity in the lineup, Damon and DeJesus seem like much better fits.
Moving on… the pitching is, of course, the easiest part of this equation. The starting rotation is more or less set in stone with Halladay, Lee, Hamels, Worley, and Blanton. In the last year of his three-year contract, Blanton (earning $8.5 million) could be used as trade fodder during the summer if he shows improvement and good health in the first three or four months. Other than that, there is nothing exciting going on with the rotation, aside from the inevitability of a Hamels contract extension.
The bullpen may see one more outsider brought in, but any remaining gaps will be filled internally and shouldn't be the cause of heated debate. Kendrick is an interesting case as he is arbitration-eligible for the second year. The Phillies paid him $2.45 million to avoid arbitration last year. MLB Trade Rumors projects Kendrick at $3.2 million this year, so the Phillies have the option of simply releasing him. Although he posted unexpectedly good results last year (3.22 ERA), his performance leaves a lot to be desired and doesn't project to be anything better than a replacement-level pitcher. Such an arm, of course, would not be worth upwards of $3 million.
To recap, these are the important story lines between now and spring training:
- First base sans Howard (Thome, Wigginton, Mayberry)
- Shortstop with or without Rollins
- Left field, whether it is filled from within or externally
- Extending Cole Hamels
At the moment, the Phillies have roughly $125 million committed to 13 players. There are five potential arbitration cases (Hamels, Pence, Kendrick, Valdez, Francisco) and a handful of players earning at or slightly more than the Major League minimum (Mayberry, Herndon, Bastardo, Worley, Stutes, Schwimer). MLB Trade Rumors projects the five arbitration-eligibles to earn a combined $31 million. Taken all together, the Phillies are at about $160 million, just barely under last year's $166 million Opening Day payroll. The luxury tax has been set at $178 million, which gives the Phillies under $20 million of wiggle room. Amaro will certainly have to perform some financial gymnastics to address the final questions, which makes the next three months all the more intriguing.

Soil Testing 14779
[soiltesting key="0″]
Tips for Selecting a Soil Testing Provider
Choosing a soil testing provider in Salamanca New York is critical in deterring the correct ratio and concentration of soil composition. Many universities all over the nation specialize in soil composition and testing, but you might instead choose to select a contractor to analyze your soil. There are a few major considerations to think about, including proficiency, current clients, and the units of results that are provided by your soil tester. Here are some important tips for selecting a soil testing provider.
[soil key="2″]
Quantity Categories
Many soil testing providers 14779 will include a range of result categories including high, very high, medium, low, or very low for testing values. These values tell you the concentration of major soil nutrients in your sample. If certain categories will help you determine what crops can be grown there, or whether the area is ripe for gardening, this may be a factor inspecting a provider. Be sure to figure out exactly what quantity categories are included with your tester.
Time for Testing Results
Some New York labs take longer to do basic soil tests but also provide more thorough and accurate results. Others take less time but may be less reputable. In general, a reputable soil testing provider should have a turnaround of 1-3 days in terms of basic calcium, potassium, magnesium, pH testing, and lime quantity. You should be able to get your results by mail, through the lab site, or through email. This will help you figure out if you need greater amounts of fertilizer, treatment, or other methods to be applied to your soil.
Proficiency of Your Lab
Most labs that do soil testing should be backed by the North American Proficiency Testing service, and should allow for NAPT testing evidence. Any lab near Salamanca – 14779 that you pick should be able to provide these results. Soil testing proficiency for each lab is very important, as you want to be sure you're getting the most accurate soil testing available.
[lab key="5″]
Be sure you understand a few basics when it comes to soil testing terminology. For example, you'll need to know if your Salamanca provider measures results in pounds per one thousand square feet, parts per million, or pounds per acre. You will also need to understand quality control, blind and double blind checks, and sample quality. You can look at the OSU's website to see exactly what types of samples will be taken and what terms you should know. Most test results also include an explanation of the test and will tell you soil science, horticulture, and agronomy explanations.
Clients and Reputation
One very important factor in selecting the best soil testing provider is the amount of clients currently being served by the tester. If your soil testing company of choice has a number of clients and a very good reputation, you'll have a better likelihood of achieving positive results. If not, you'll need to be careful to select a provider that has a promising show of results, and may simply need a bit more time to build up their reputation. It's a good idea to ask others who have used that provider for their feedback and what kind of experience they had.
These are just a few of the basic tips for selecting a soil testing provider 14779. As long as you read up on the provider beforehand, do a bit of research into soil terminology, and fully understand the provider's client base and reputation, you should be able to make a well-informed decision.

History of Apartment Locating:
Have you ever searched for an apartment on the Internet and got listings for an "Apartment Locator?"
You may be offered the promise of a "Free Service".
Is Free really Free?
In 1959, Apartment Selector was founded by Cecil Laughlin, Jr. to be a free service to renters. Owners and managers of apartment communities agreed to pay a small fee to meet new clients.
So Free does mean Free. There is no fee for the service and the rent and offerings made by communities are similar to those you would find advertised by other services.
An apartment locator is a person who will match your apartment needs with available apartments by searching their extensive database of hundreds of apartments available. The matching of needs with available units is what apartment locators do.
Some major reasons to consider the services of an apartment locator.
1. Save your time- Why: we know the areas, the apartment properties, many apartment property managers personally, so they can check for up to the minute availability on apartments that meet your criteria.
2. Save you money– Why: you save on driving around to communities not matched to your needs and you will learn about apartments offering incentives such as free rent or low deposits.
3. Save you mental stress– Why: you tell one person what you need one time. Locators get results fast, free and easy. Ask about the "Valet" service. Letting someone else do the driving is especially welcome when the alternative is navigating around an unfamiliar city.

Storage: Store Studio dies in AccuQuilt die storage cases or storage racks.
Die Tips:
- With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
- Use cutting plastic that matches size of each die.
- For best results, cut with die blades running under roller at an angle. Do not cut with blades parallel to roller.
- Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle. Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board.
- Some dies feature specially designed corners to aid in alignment and pre-cutting.
- For fast applique, apply fusible web to fabrics, then cut shapes with dies.
- Use good quality fabric to reduce fabric stretch.
- It's always a good idea to test cut one shape before cutting many shapes to ensure fabric orientation is correct.
Care & Maintenance: Use adhesive roller to clean lint and thread from dies. After each use, with the die pick provided with the cutter, remove any threads imbedded between blades and foam. It's normal for threads to get caught where blades meet in a die. Remove with tweezers or die pick. Die blades never need to be sharpened.

The Student Operated Press, a news portal that attracts an average of 300,000 visitors a month and hosts contributions from 300 writers from 27 countries, carried an interview with Adnan Oktar on 25 June, 2009. On the show, hosted by Gordon Liddy, one of Radio America's well-known producers, Mr. Oktar responded to questions about the Iranian elections.(You can listen to the full interview here or read the transcript here.)
ADNAN OKTAR: Laicism, yes, of course it is very important. Laicism is actually something that already exists within the essence of Islam. Islam and laicism is interpenetrated. Of course in a population in which laicism is not practiced, hypocrite and insincere people would come up, an insincere environment would come up. For that reason for a sincere environment to be formed, it is very important to practice laicism fastidiously. However this does not carry the meaning of being irreligious, this is an understanding of laicism in which the rights of religion and religious people are wholly protected. In that sense I of course regard every country in which laicism is not practiced, as in mistake, in error. However Iranian constitution is only valid until the coming of the Hazrat Mahdi (as). This is to say the subject matter Hazrat Mahdi (as) is in the 1st article of the Iranian constitution. They declare that their constitution is only valid until the arrival of the Hazrat Mahdi (as). For that reason, Iran is not claiming that they are perfect anyway, they just say that they will continue with this system until the times of Hazrat Mahdi (as). When Hazrat Mahdi (as) comes there won't be such things, such distress. Everything will be settled when Hazrat Mahdi (as) comes InshaAllah.

The police report detailing Davone Bess' alleged assault of a deputy at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport Friday depicts an unstable, violent man, likely on drugs.
It's the same condition in which authorities discovered Bess, the former Dolphins receiver, in his Cooper City home 10 months earlier — and the reason his family had him hospitalized against his will.
Six BSO deputies were needed that night to restrain Bess, who was screaming, "Hide the guns!" "Where is my weed?" and "I want to get in the end zone; throw me the football!" according to the incident report.
Word of Bess' prior meltdown was never made public until now.
A month after his hospitalization, the Dolphins traded him to the Cleveland Browns, where he remains to this day. A team spokesman said the Browns are aware of the situation and are working to gather more information.
Bess, 28, already had drawn scrutiny in recent days for two pictures of what appears to be marijuana that he posted on Twitter.
Then on Friday, his problems worsened. Broward Sheriff's Office deputies arrested him at the airport, charging him with assault, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest without violence.
Here's what happened, according to the report:
Early in the morning, Bess was seen walking down the airport concourse "acting irrationally" — singing and dancing with his pants falling down.
When BSO deputy Thomas O'Brien, who works the airport detail, approached Bess, the football player crushed a cup of coffee on him and got into a fighting stance.
O'Brien, fearing for his safety, struck Bess in the leg with his baton. It apparently had no effect. Bess took off his shirt and got back into a fighting stance.
Finally, after backup arrived, Bess surrendered and was taken into custody. The deputy believes Bess was on drugs.
"He appeared to be looking through me when I was talking to him," O'Brien wrote.
CBS-4 Miami caught up with Bess, who had bonded out of jail, and asked what he plans to do next.
"Get back to helping kids all over the world," said Bess, the Miami Dolphins' 2011 Walter Payton Man of the Year, an award that honors players for their work away from the field.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported late Friday that Bess has been dealing with personal issues for some time, including insomnia, and was trying to catch a flight back home to seek help.
That jibes with the police report from March 11, 2013, unearthed by The Miami Herald.
On that night, BSO was called to Bess' Cooper City home. When the first deputy arrived, he noted a strong smell of cannabis coming from the master bedroom. The deputy also observed several males trying to restrain an agitated, incoherent Bess, who was trying to throw them off. He started screaming about guns and drugs and football. Efforts by fire rescue to sedate him were unsuccessful.
Finally, a half-dozen cops were able to pin him down. Bess was taken to Memorial East Hospital for observation.
Bess' mother, Chinell Carpenter, had flown in that day from California after receiving a call that her son was not acting like himself. She said then that Bess had not slept in three days and was going through some serious personal issues. Carpenter added that Bess had no prior psychiatric history and was on no medication.
Bess was once hailed as a true redemption story. Raised in a rough part of Oakland, he witnessed the murder of his uncle at age 10.
Years later, he was sent to juvenile detention for his role in a theft and lost his scholarship to Oregon State. He straightened out his life, and and went on to star at the University of Hawaii.
The Dolphins took a chance on him as an undrafted rookie out of college, and he went on to catch 321 passes in his five years with the team.
In late 2012, he and the coaching staff had a falling out, and the Dolphins ultimately traded him to the Browns during draft weekend in 2013. Those close to him say he has since had trouble at home. He had a league-high 14 drops this season and missed the final two games to deal with a personal emergency in Oakland.
Since then, his behavior has grown even more erratic.
For the time being at least, the Browns are stuck with Bess. League rules prohibit teams from cutting players until the day after the Super Bowl.
Dolphins receiver Brandon Gibson, Bess' teammate for a brief time and his de facto replacement on the field, tweeted out the following Friday: "Praying for my bro DB."
Miami Herald sports writer Armando Salguero contributed to this report.

Jason Biggs has risked upsetting his American Pie co-star Tara Reid again by poking fun at her body in a webcast.
The actor was forced to apologize to Reid last year (13) when she targeted him on Twitter.com for calling her a "hot mess" during a TV interview, and now he's having fun at her expense again.
During a recently taped edition of Joan Rivers' web show, In Bed With Joan, Biggs was asked who he would save and who he would kill if he was stranded with Reid and Lindsay Lohan.
He replied, "Lindsay Lohan stays. She's got nice boobs. She really does. Lindsay's got nice boobs. Tara's body, I don't know what's going on with it. I don't think she ever knows what's going on with it... No one knows what's going on with Tara's body."
The comment appeared to be a dig at Reid's plastic surgery enhancements.
The actress is sure to respond - after Biggs poked fun at her on Watch What Happens Live last year (13), she tweeted, "@JasonBiggs it's really sad I just landed in LA and the first thing I read about you that you are calling me a hot mess. I've supported u!"
Biggs later tweeted, "@TaraReid I love u Tara, it was a joke! Didnt (sic) mean to offend, Totally kidding around! it was a game!"

Phoenix weather: Fall storm moves inPosted: Updated:
PHOENIX -- Our first big fall storm moves closer to Arizona on Wednesday.
The day was off to a mild start with clear skies and Valley temperatures in the 60s and low 70s.
This afternoon, we'll warm up to the low 90s with increasing cloud cover ahead of Thursday's storm. The low pressure system currently moving onshore in California is expected to work its way from west to east across Arizona Thursday, bringing windy, cooler and wet weather.
Winds are expected out of the south Thursday afternoon and evening between 15 and 25 miles per hour, with gusts up to 40 mph. That could generate some patchy blowing dust.
Rain chances are looking slightly better for the Valley. There's about a 40 percent chance of showers between Thursday afternoon and Friday morning. Valley highs will likely top out in the upper 80s Thursday and upper 70s Friday.
The weekend looks dry, with low 80s on Saturday, upper 80s on Sunday, with sunshine for both days. Overnight lows are expected to dip to the 50s.

A Little Bit of Soap
The day I killed Ryan, I started to live again.
The year leading up to the fatal shooting was the most trying time of my life. The prime time show I'd been writing for was cancelled and the movie I'd been contracted to write scrapped. The production company with whom I had a development deal shut down and for the first time I was unemployed. My personal life was worse. My father had a stroke, a close friend was dying, and my husband abruptly left me for another woman. My life had become, well, a soap opera.
My heart broken, my pride wounded, my bank account dwindling, I poured out my heart to a friend who was an executive with NBC Daytime. She responded with what seemed an absurd non sequitur, "Have you ever thought of writing for daytime?" I laughed, "You mean, a soap?" She explained that NBC was looking for new blood for their daytime division and thought I might be good for them. At another time in my life, I would have rejected the idea out of hand. A soap opera? The genre of baby switches and evil twins? Where people came back from the dead? Really? I'd written for prime time! I'd had films produced! I had theater credits! But now I was a single mom, the sole support of two pre-school aged children and I needed a job.
Prior to that day, I'd never even seen a soap unless I'd passed one on the dial on the way to a PBS station – a snob with no firsthand knowledge of the field. Still, I accepted an assignment to write a few sample stories for "Another World" and I had to start watching the show. The first day, I had trouble keeping the characters and the three or four storylines straight. The next day there was some overlap, but also different characters and other stories. In a week, I'd seen all the characters in the concurrent stories … and I was hooked. I wanted to know if the evil countess Justine Duvalier (a dead ringer for the saintly Rachel Cory) was really going to wall up her future daughter-in-law in her cellar. Was Sharlene's alternate hooker personality going to ruin her chance at love? And who was stalking the nurses at Bay City General? In short, I'd gone from being a snob to being a fan. I got it now. I understood that a soap opera can have drama, comedy and tragedy all in the space of an hour. The characters have developed over months and years and have histories and rich and complicated relationships. They are friends you root for, lovers you wish for, children you worry for, the family you can count on to be there for you day after day. Soaps are escapism in the purist form. Watching "Another World" took me away from my own problems. Writing for it gave me a whole new life.
I wrote my sample stories and was hired as a staff writer for "Another World." I was glad to have a regular job and a steady income and I loved inventing stories, loved getting into the heads of characters and taking them on a journey. I loved being able to stay in New York and have a predictable enough schedule to spend time with my children. My bad year was over.
Which brings me to Ryan's murder. There are certain "special days" on every soap opera, among them weddings, births and the death of a major character. Within three weeks of my writing for "Another World," I was entrusted with the shooting of one such beloved character, Ryan Harrison. It was an important episode and after I wrote it I was informed that my contract had been picked up, that I would be writing for a soap for the next 13 weeks. That was 15 years ago and I've written for daytime dramas without interruption ever since. Incidentally, Ryan was really dead when I "killed" him. Unlike many soap opera characters, he did not come back to life. I am happy to report that I, however, did.
Shelly Altman currently writes for ABC's "One Life to Live." Prior to her Emmy Award-winning work in daytime television, Shelly wrote extensively for prime time ("Kate and Allie," "True Blue," "Katts and Dog," etc.) and for film ("Sweet Lorraine," "The Gnomes' Great Adventure," "Jewels of Main," etc.).

What a crock of shit. Burke arrived in 98 to a team with a lot of assets.RoyalDude wrote:Just lightly brush over this like these two scenario's were very similar. The only similarities were the team, i.e. the Canucks. Burke took over a total fucking messBoston Canucker wrote: Four years ago, Burke and Gillis took over teams that had missed the playoffs, and since then the results of their work could not be more different. Yes, of course, Gillis came in with more to work with,
I can only imagine if Burke was blessed like Gillis was blessed with having top notch goaltending to go along with the Sedins hitting their prime, along Kesler and Burrows and Edler and Bieksa etc.
You want a fair comparison between Burke and Gillis, compare the situation Burke took over in Anaheim to the situation Gillis took over here. Very similar in fact. Star players in place, just needing a couple tweaks here and there, ie Neidermeyer, Pronger, Selanne and Beauchemin to Hamhius, Erhoff etc.
Mogilny, Bure, McCabe, Ohlund, Hedican, Naslund, Bertuzzi , Scatchard, Aucoin( a 4th overall pick - Bryan Allen) and tons of good gritty players like Walker , Staois, Brashear and May. There was a lot of talent when Fatso got here..... no chemistry and not much of a "team" ..... but he had a shitload of tradeable chips to start a rebuild and guys like Bertuzzi, Naslund and Ohlund were already here. Fatso gave up good gritty players like Staois and Walker in the two expansion drafts and shit the bed three times trying to get a god damned goalie.
Because we had to protect Darby Hendrickson, Jamie Huscroft, Harry York etc. Staios and Walker only played another 15 years and both became pretty fair hard nosed players. But Burke is a fucking genius and he had NOTHING to work with when he got here.

SOURCE: Theravance, Inc.
January 24, 2013 16:05 ET
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Jan 24, 2013) - Theravance, Inc. (NASDAQ: THRX) (the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company with a pipeline of internally discovered product candidates and strategic collaborations with pharmaceutical companies, announced that it closed the sale of its previously announced underwritten public offering of $287.5 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.125% convertible subordinated notes due 2023 (the "notes"), which includes the underwriters' full exercise of their option to purchase an additional $37.5 million aggregate principal amount of the notes. BofA Merrill Lynch acted as the sole book-running manager for the offering.
In connection with the offering of the notes, the Company entered into privately-negotiated capped call option transactions. The aggregate cost of the capped call options was $36.8 million.
The capped call options are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution upon conversion of the notes in the event that the market price of the Company's common stock, as measured under the terms of the capped call transactions, is greater than the strike price of the capped call transactions, which initially corresponds to the conversion price of the notes, and is expected to be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. However, if the market price of the Company's common stock, as measured under the terms of the capped call transactions, exceeds $38.00 per share, which is the initial cap price of the capped call transactions, the anti-dilutive effect of the capped call transactions will be limited.
In addition to paying for the cost of entering into the capped call option transactions, the Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for potential milestone payments to GlaxoSmithKline plc if there is any approval or launch of products under the parties' long-acting beta2 agonist (LABA) collaboration, including RELVAR™ or BREO™ (fluticasone furoate/vilanterol), ANORO™ (umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol), or vilanterol, for the potential repayment of debt, and for other general corporate purposes.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
The offering was made pursuant to a registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 16, 2013 and including a final prospectus dated January 17, 2013 filed with the SEC on January 18, 2013. Before you invest in the notes, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and the other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and the notes. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, copies of the prospectus may be obtained by contacting the issuer or by calling BofA Merrill Lynch at 866-500-5408. In addition, copies of the final prospectus may be obtained from BofA Merrill Lynch, 222 Broadway, New York, NY 10038, Attn: Prospectus Department, or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

WILLIAMSBURG — A large fire broke out in a Bedford Avenue building in Williamsburg Tuesday afternoon, injuring two firefighters, officials said.
The massive blaze started in the top floors of 175 Bedford Ave., near North 7th Street, just before 2 p.m. and the fire spread to the building next door, which houses the popular Ella Cafe, the Fire Department said.
The two firefighters were trapped when a ceiling partially collapsed in 175 Bedford. The firefighters were taken to New York Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
One of the building's residents, Diana Whitten, was at work in Manhattan when she heard about the fire.
When she got home, the top floors of the building where she lived for 12 years was on fire.
"I saw smoke," she said while crying.
Another woman was home in nearby building when the fire started.
"I saw flames shooting out of the building. I heard yelling," said Sarah Miller who lives on nearby Driggs Avenue. "[Firefighters] were asking, "Is everyone is alright? Is everyone alright?"
Joseph Grillo, who lives on the top floor of 177 Bedford, was not home at the time, but his wife and cat escaped unharmed.
"I was at work and my wife called me," he said. "I'm not taking this well. This is sort of hard to take in."
Nearly 200 firefighters were working to get the blaze under control, the FDNY said. The cafe did not appear to be badly damaged.
The city's Office of Emergency Management advised drivers to expect traffic delays in the area.

Shark Week's Megalodon and Sharknado are fake, but are shark attacks increasing?
Unless you were living under a rock, it was hard to escape the onslaught of shark news this summer, between the Discovery Channel's latest foray to beef up their now infamous "Shark Week," Megalodon, and SyFy's Sharknado. While both efforts were fake, many continue to question whether or not shark attacks are increasing.
The truth about a "sharknado"
While both shows—Megalodon and Sharknado—garnered a lot of attention, the campiness of disaster flick Sharknado, in which a freak storm causes man-eating sharks to infest Los Angeles inside waterspouts, seems to have really captured the collective imagination. So could such a thing as a sharknado actually happen? According to the experts writing at the blog Deep Sea News, the answer to whether or not Megalodon exists is a resounding no, however science has yet to fully disprove the possibility of a sharknado.

IBS Group Solutions for Connected Car Space Recognized by Independent Research Firm
Jan 22, 2013, 03:39 EST
RAMSEY, Isle of Man, January 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Please refer to relevant legal information at the end of the document
IBS Group, a leading software development and IT services provider in Central and Eastern Europe, announces that Luxoft, a member of IBS Group, was named among the key four operating system, software and application developers identified by Gartner, Inc. in the December 2012 report: "Innovation Insight: The Connected Vehicle Will Dominate Automotive and Mobility Innovations."
Luxoft automotive practice focuses its innovative development work around each of the four functional areas discussed by Gartner's VP and distinguished analyst Thilo Koslowski, the author of the report: telematics, advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs), infotainment and mobility services. Human Machine Interface (HMI) is highlighted as one of the main differentiating factors for connected vehicle offerings: "A key aspect of the attractiveness of infotainment solutions, and an opportunity for differentiation, lies in how consumers can use the information and entertainment content while operating the vehicle. This puts a strong focus on human-machine interface (HMI) technologies, ease of use and upgradability of infotainment user interfaces."
Luxoft has been making significant impact in the automotive telematics and infotainment space for years, working with the most recognized brands and world's leading auto manufacturers. The Company has been developing advanced infotainment and HMI frameworks, tools, and processes for 3D technologies for the leading automakers and tier-one and-two suppliers for nearly a decade. In line with natural evolvement of services within in-car infotainment and telematics space, Luxoft engineers are also working on new user experiences involving gestures to interact with the next generation of infotainment systems in a very intuitive and dynamic way. Since 2012 this expertise is being further honed at Luxoft's dedicated HMI Research and Development center in Germany and includes development of platform technologies and user-friendly interfaces (UIs) to improve in-vehicle app ergonomics and reduce driver distraction.
Anticipating the auto market trends, Luxoft engineering experts develop product platforms that work as solution accelerators for OEMs and their first tier suppliers.

To the editor:
First and foremost, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to each business, individual or group that has eagerly contributed to the 2015 Project Graduation Event.
If you have contributed in the past and have not been contacted this year for a contribution, we apologize and would like to take this opportunity to appeal to our community to help with the costs associated with this event.
Project Graduation is funded entirely by donations and is coordinated by a group of parents of the 2015 graduating class.
I want to call attention to the members of Anderson County Emergency Medical Services who, day in and out, are available to answer the call to help aid and assist the citizens of this county in their times of acute injury, illness or any crisis.
They are trained to meet any and all medical emergencies and to transport the injured, ill and those in need to hospitals for life-saving care.
Last week's edition of The Anderson News carried a front page article about a fracas of some sort on the parking lot of First Baptist Church.
The altercation occurred in connection with a basketball game held in the church's gym. It was a very unfortunate event. News though it may be, I agree with the church's pastor who questioned whether the story deserved front-page coverage, though I realize my judgment is that of a fellow pastor not a newsman.
I've heard similar complaints from others, so I'm going to vent for a moment.
My wife and I have lived in the same house for over 10 years. Our water bill (South Anderson) has been consistent each month since we've lived here. Sure, there was the occasional summer month where we'd water the yard during a drought here and there but generally from month to month they charged us for roughly 3,000 gallons of water for our household. It was almost like clockwork. We just knew what our charges would be each month.
This letter is for all of the Christians in Anderson County.
As the New York Daily News hit the stands, its editorial pages had been stripped of the scheduled copy and, instead, the newspaper published the Lord's Prayer.
Hundreds of thousands of young Americans are serving our military to preserve our way of life, and yet fewer and fewer citizens are participating in our democracy.
May 19 is primary election day when Kentuckians will be selecting candidates for governor, commissioner of agriculture, and other constitutional officers.
Members of Anderson County Farm Bureau hope every voter will make their voices heard by casting informed votes for our government leaders.
It was a sad day for our family April 8. We had to put down our dog, Bear, because of his diabetes.
He was blind and his liver was failing He stopped eating and when he did, it would come back up.
He became very weak and started to wobble when he walked, it was very hard for him to get up and move around.
It was time for him to give it up.
Bear was a kind, gentle and loving dog. He loved kids and adults alike.
He will always be in our hearts and minds. We dearly miss him. We love you, Bear.
I am going to cut to the chase with Sports Editor John Herndon's column last week titled "Harrison's words a reflection of society."
The one line, "Some downplay the racial slur as common language among young African Americans." Yes, I noticed he said "some," but it's now just as much, if not more of young Caucasian males and females throwing the N word around as everyday common language.
I am writing to send a big thank you to the men and women in the local volunteer dire department who came to our rescue April 1.
My hero, my son Kaleb Diaz who is 10 years old, called 911 and the fire and rescue were there within minutes to extinguish the fire that had gotten out of control when simply trying to burn leaves in the ditch line.

A U.S. District Judge in Nebraska has ruled in favor of the Department of Justices Show Cause Motion in the never-ending saga of Nebraska Beef Ltd. reneging on a settlement that it reached in August 2015 with the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices (now the Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER)) of the Department of Justice.
As you may recall, Nebraska Beef and the OSC reached a settlement concerning whether Nebraska Beef was discriminating against work-authorized immigrants by requiring non-U.S. citizens, but not similarly-situated U.S. citizens, to present specific documentary proof of their immigration status to verify their employment eligibility in violation of the Immigration & Nationality Act (INA). In the settlement, Nebraska Beef agreed to pay a $200,000 civil penalty.
However, before the civil penalty was due, a Department of Justice press release stated the government found Nebraska Beef to have violated the law. The settlement had stated the OSC had a reasonable cause to believe Nebraska Beef had violated the INA. Nebraska Beef asserted the press releases inaccuracy materially breached the settlement agreement because Nebraska Beef did not admit liability and excused the companys payment of $200,000.
Thereafter, the OSC filed for enforcement of the settlement agreement in federal court in Nebraska. The District Court found no material breach occurred and ordered Nebraska Beef to pay the $200,000 and perform all settlement obligations. After an appeal of the order, the Court stayed the companys obligation to pay the $200,000 civil penalty but not the companys other obligations training, reporting, and notifying potential back pay claimants and providing such information to the IER of the DOJ.
Nebraska Beef did not timely comply with the non-monetary portions of the order even though these provisions had not been stayed. Thus, the DOJ filed a Motion to Show Cause as to why Nebraska Beef was not in contempt of court.
The District Court granted the governments motion and ordered Nebraska Beef to show why it should not be held in contempt of court. I will update this case when the Court decides whether Nebraska Beef is in contempt of court.

On January 18, 2017, the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC) changed its name to Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER), Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice. The newly named government agency has been busy in its first months of existence.
Since January 18, 2017, the IER has entered into seven settlement agreements and collected over $300,000 in penalties and $75,000 in backpay.
Besides these settlement agreements, IER has issued 11 Letters of Resolution to employers. IER issues a Letter of Resolution when after an investigation of a charge, there is insufficient evidence of a violation of the anti-discrimination provision, but there is evidence of the employer having deficiencies in their I-9 form and/or E-Verify compliance. Letters of Resolution may also be issued when an employer quickly resolves an issue by hiring or reinstating the individual in question with backpay. In resolving these investigations, employer often agree to participate in IER-sponsored training and to ensure their Human Resources Staff becomes better trained on I-9 and E-Verify compliance.

The Justice Departments Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER) (formerly known as OSC) has reached a settlement agreement with Provisional Staffing Solutions, a temporary staffing agency located in Cranston, Rhode Island. The agreement resolves the IERs investigation into whether Provisional Staffing discriminated against non-U.S. citizens in violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
The investigation concluded Provisional Staffing routinely requested non-U.S. citizens present specific identity documents, such as a Permanent Resident Card, to prove their work authorization while not requesting a specific identity document from U.S. citizens. The antidiscrimination provision of the INA prohibits employers from subjecting employees to unnecessary documentary demands based on the employees citizenship or national origin. Lawful permanents residents and other work-authorized non-U.S. citizens often have the same identity and work authorization documents available to them as U.S. citizens, and may choose from among the acceptable documents to prove they are authorized to work.
Under the settlement, Provisional Staffing must pay a civil penalty of over $16,000 to the United States, provide a copy of Lists of Acceptable Documents to employees simultaneously with the request for employees to complete their I-9 forms, revise company policies in order that they prohibit discrimination on the basis of citizenship status or national origin, post notices informing workers about their rights under the INAs antidiscrimination provision, train their human resources personnel, through the viewing of an IER webinar, on immigration compliance issues, and be subject to departmental monitoring and reporting requirements for the next three years.
Staffing companies appear to be more likely to violate the antidiscrimination provision of the INA. In the past year, IER has settled with at least five staffing companies concerning allegations of discrimination due to citizenship status.

The Office of Chief Administrative Hearing Officer (OCAHO) issued another decision on document abuse, which has been renamed unfair documentary practices, finding the employer did not commit document abuse against the Charging Party, Doris Rainwater. Rainwater v. Doctors Hospice of Georgia, Inc., 12 OCAHO no. 1300 (Apr. 2017).
Ms. Rainwater was employed as a certified nursing assistant at Doctors Hospice for several years. At that time, she was a lawful permanent resident (LPR). In November 2013, Doctors Hospice conducted an annual review of its employees personnel files to ensure none of its employee documentation, such as certifications, had expired. In this review, the Administrator discovered Ms. Rainwaters LPR card had expired. Thereafter, Ms. Rainwater was informed she was suspended until she could present a valid LPR card.
Ms. Rainwater contacted the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practice (OSC) (now renamed Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER) of the Department of Justice), who informed her that Doctors Hospices action was discriminatory. OSC called Doctors Hospice and explained even if a LPR card expires, the individuals LPR status has not ended. During the suspension, Ms. Rainwater told her supervisor, Ms. Charleston, that she had called the Department of Justice. Ms. Charleston reiterated she could not work with an expired LPR card. (Its unclear whether this conversation occurred before or after OSCs call to Doctors Hospice). Doctors Hospices Director of Nursing said she received a phone call from the Department of Justice, who said LPR cards never expire. Several days later, Ms. Rainwater was reinstated, but without back pay for the two weeks off.
When Ms. Rainwater returned to work, she said most of the managers did not speak to her. One manager, Ms. West, allegedly stated the facility had the best lawyer and nobody beat or play with my lawyers. She also allegedly said you should have talked to me about his prior to going to the Department of Justice to complain about these things.
On January 8, during an ice storm, a pipe burst at this facility causing a shutdown and the layoff of all employees. On February 27, the facility reopened but it was not fully occupied with patients; thus, two employees were not rehired - Ms. Rainwater and one other employee. Doctors Hospice asserted Ms. Rainwater was one of the two employees not rehired because of her poor work record and performance. Thereafter, Ms. Rainwater filed a charge with OSC alleging her failure to be rehired was retaliation and the original suspension was also unlawful.
Suspension Claim
OCAHO found Ms. Rainwaters suspension claim failed because the statute only prohibits an employer from discriminating with respect to hiring, recruitment, referral or discharge. The statute does not cover certain employment actions, such as suspension, compensation, or shift assignments.
However, Doctors Hospices actions in requesting an unexpired LPR card from Ms. Rainwater was determined to be an act of document abuse under 8 U.S.C. §1324b(a)(6). However, Ms. Rainwater is not a protected individual under that section because she was not a recent permanent resident. Ms. Rainwater had been a LPR for almost 10 years. To be covered, individuals must have not held LPR status for no longer than six months beyond becoming eligible to naturalize. Ms. Rainwater became eligible to naturalize approximately five years before the request for an unexpired LPR card.
Failure to be Rehired Claim
Concerning the failure to rehire Ms. Rainwater to work when the facility reopened, OCAHO found Ms. Rainwaters evidence did not support her retaliation claim. Initially, OCAHO noted that even though she was not considered a protected individual for the document abuse claim, OCAHO retained jurisdiction over her retaliation claim. Specifically, Ms. Rainwater engaged in protected conduct when she contacted OSC about her suspension due to an expired LPR card. Furthermore, Doctors Hospice knew of the contact through Ms. Rainwater telling Doctors Hospice and a telephone call from OSC explaining that LPR cards do not expire.
OCAHO concluded Ms. Rainwater failed to establish a causal link between her protected conduct and the failure to be rehired. Although the time period between the telephone call to OSC and the termination was less than three months, OCAHO found intervening events the ice storm, closure of the facility, and subsequent reopening of the facility with less than full capacity - broke the claim of causality in the retaliation claim. OCAHO said these events caused the end of Ms. Rainwaters employment, not retaliation. Furthermore, the fact that Doctors Hospice returned Ms. Rainwater to work in December after the phone call to OSC undercut her assertion of a causal link between contacting OSC and her failure to be rehired. Finally, OCAHO found Doctors Hospice comments about Ms. Rainwaters contact with OSC were not sufficient to establish the causal link. Thus, OCAHO dismissed Ms. Rainwaters retaliation claim.
This decision is a firm reminder of who is covered and what is covered by Section 1324b cases. Often, employers are so focused on complying with the I-9 requirements, they inadvertently commit citizenship status discrimination under Section 1324b. One idea to combat this problem is to have an immigration compliance attorney conduct a training session on immigration compliance.

The Justice Departments Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER), formerly known as the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices, reached an agreement with Brickell Financial Services Motor Club, Inc., d/b/a Road America Motor Club, Inc. (Road America), headquartered in Miami, Florida. The settlement resolves the IERs investigation into whether the company violated the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) by discriminating against work-authorized immigrants when verifying their work authorization.
The IER concluded, based on its investigation, that Road America routinely requested that lawful permanent residents show their Permanent Resident Cards to prove their work authorization but did not request specific documents from U.S. citizens. The investigation further revealed that Road America required lawful permanent resident employees to re-establish their work authorization when their Permanent Resident Cards expired, even though federal rules prohibit this practice. The antidiscrimination provision of the INA prohibits employers from subjecting employees to unnecessary documentary demands based on the employees citizenship or national origin.
Under the settlement, Road America will pay a civil penalty of $34,200 and pay $1,044 to compensate a worker who lost wages due to its unfair documentary practices. Road America has also agreed to post notices informing workers about their rights under the INAs antidiscrimination provision, train their human resources personnel, and be subject to departmental monitoring and reporting requirements.
Unfortunately, the errors made by Road America are common among many employers. A good immigration training program could avoid these mistakes.

Justin McCarthy began drawing while a patient at the Rittersville (Pennsylvania) State Home for the Insane, to which he was admitted in 1915 after suffering a nervous breakdown. On his release in 1920 he returned to his Weatherly, Pennsylvania, family home, and remained there until the early 1970s, living with his mother until her death in 1940. Throughout his life McCarthy held many jobs, such as a farmer and a machinists' assistant, but he considered himself an artist, drawing or painting a wide range of subjects derived from newspapersfashion and travel magazines, religious and historical events, as well as images of glamorous celebrities. His work was noticed by a dealer and collector at a local art show around 1960, and in 1965 he had his first solo exhibition, at the Everhart Museum, in Scranton, Pennsylvania. He died in Tuscon, Arizona, on July 14, 1977, at the age of 85.
This confident yet unconventional composition, with its nontraditional color and highly textured brushstrokes, is typical of McCarthy's expressive style.

Local church hosting New Year's event for middle/high schoolers
A local church youth group is offering middle school and high school students a new opportunity to ring in the New Year in a safe and fun setting.The Salvage Yard is the sixth through twelfth grade student ministry at Emmanuel Fellowship Church in Sweetwater. The group will be sponsoring the "AllThingsNew - New Year's Eve Bash" on Monday, December 31 at the church, located at 1418 Hailey.Doors to the event will open at 8 p.m. and there will be a $10 entry fee with food and drinks available. Each person will also be entered for chances to win door prizes, including $100 in cash.The event is only for 6th through 12th graders and for safety purposes, a student will not be allowed to leave and re-enter the event once they come inside. The party will end at 12:30 a.m., and local transportation will be available for students whose parents cannot pick them up."New Year's just happens to be among the holidays where unfortunately, some poor choices are made, often life-changing or even life-ending choices," said Loran Rule, the youth/associate pastor of Emmanuel Fellowship Church. "The purpose of this event is to provide a safe place for students to have an incredible time, while sober, and bring in the New Year in a brand new way."The headliner of this new event will be electronic music artist and producer Alejandro Cesar, who grew up in the electronic music/rave scene and has mixed music all over the world at rave parties. But after Jesus Christ came into his life four years ago, Cesar was given a new vision.Understanding the power behind music, Cesar started producing electronic dance music with the salvation message. He knew that the music could be used as a way to celebrate joy and freedom while spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ through turntables and mixer."It [Cesar's music] still has that powerful electronic techno & dubstep sound, but now it's infused with the promises of God's Word," Rule explained.To learn more about Cesar and his music, visit his website at www.alejandrocesar.com. For more information on the AllThingsNew - New Year's Eve Bash, call Pastor Loran at (325) 933-0129.

SPCA Florida's McClurg Animal Medical Center Selected for Hillsborough Community College Veterinary Technology Program Expansion
Feb 22, 2013, 06:05 EST
LAKELAND, Fla., Feb. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In partnership with Hillsborough Community College (HCC), SPCA Florida announced today that its McClurg Animal Medical Center has been selected as an official externship site for students enrolled in the Certified Veterinary Technology (CVT) program for the school. The two year Applied Sciences program, one of only six in Florida, requires veterinary technician students to participate in 240 hours of course work in approved veterinary medical facilities. SPCA Florida is now an official off-site learning lab for individual student externship opportunities as well as a working classroom where special wet-lab instructional lessons are conducted for the entire class off-campus by the HCC faculty.
"As we strive to elevate the status of veterinary technicians as partners in the practice of veterinary medicine, collaborating with the veterinary technology program at HCC provides students an invaluable externship experience both in general practice veterinary medicine and small animal surgery rotations," says SPCA Florida's CEO Sean Hawkins. "Providing learning opportunities for students, under the guidance of SPCA Florida's professional staff, while meeting core curriculum components for the CVT program, benefits both students and the public as we are able to attract and hire a more highly skilled paraprofessional for the care of dogs and cats in our Animal Medical Center as well as in private veterinary practices in the community."
Dr. Vincent Centonze, Program Director for Veterinary Technology at HCC said, "We are thrilled to partner with SPCA Florida for off-site learning opportunities not only because of the state-of-the-art veterinary medical facilities that are now available to our students but because of the true passion for and dedication to excellence in veterinary medicine exhibited by the leadership and staff at the McClurg Animal Medical Center. How lucky we are to have this wonderful facility right here in Central Florida."
Three to six veterinary technician students will participate in rotations at any one time as part of their externship requirements. Wet-labs, which are instructional lessons conducted for the entire class at the SPCA Florida campus each month in such areas as assisting with dental procedures on shelter animals, benefit both the student's education and animals needing medical attention while they are waiting for their adoptive homes.
About SPCA Florida
Founded in 1979, SPCA Florida exists to eliminate animal suffering and to enhance the human-animal bond by engaging the entire community in the welfare and well-being of animals. We accomplish this through model programs that promote the adoption of healthy animals, prevent dog and cat overpopulation, and provide veterinary medical services for animals in the community. SPCA Florida's relinquishment intervention programs create a safety net to keep animals who have homes in those homes. The McClurg Animal Medical Center heals and helps 50,000 patients annually and the Animal Adoption Center provides caring, compassion and hope to more than 6,000 homeless animals entering our doors each year.
